PANEL-SPECIFIC TIMING OFFSETS FOR MULTI-PANEL ANTENNA UPLINK TRANSMISSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17923578 titled 'PANEL-SPECIFIC TIMING OFFSETS FOR MULTI-PANEL ANTENNA UPLINK TRANSMISSIONS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a user equipment for wireless communication that can support uplink transmissions from multiple antenna panels. The equipment receives configuration information for a serving cell, including bandwidth and timing advance group identifiers. It determines if the bandwidth supports uplink transmissions from multiple antenna panels and performs uplink transmissions based on different timing advance group identifiers for each panel.

Original Abstract Submitted
A user equipment for wireless communication is provided. The user equipment receives configuration information for a serving cell. The configuration information indicates at least one bandwidth part and at least two timing advance group identifiers for the serving cell. The user equipment determines whether the at least one bandwidth part is configured to support uplink transmissions from a plurality of antenna panels of the user equipment. The user equipment performs a first uplink transmission from a first antenna panel of the plurality of antenna panels based on a first timing advance group identifier and a second uplink transmission from a second antenna panel of the plurality of antenna panels based on a second timing advance group identifier when the at least one bandwidth part is configured to support the uplink transmissions from the plurality of antenna panels.
